told you it would work

2nd place is the first place loser... lol

Doncha just love F-Bodies ~~~~~~~~ Awesome ride man. Well, for starters you are getting free service right now.. HAHAHAHA, call them and say "HEY, your guys havn't done anything to fix my connection. (you have to make sure and tell them that it is 'going out everynow and then' also... otherwise they won't credit your account because cable providers never guarentee connection speed) ~~ Poor guy... slow connection... at least you can get on the road and show those rice burners that there is NO REPLACEMENT for DISPLACEMENT! Small blocks ROCK!

Hummmmm, well that sucks .. sounds like aldelphia needs to get out there and get you working right

Try to connect strait from the modem to the computer... cut the router out of the chain and hit me back and let me know your performance. ~~ then we can go from there. hehe, by the way if you like cars.. check out mine 1989 chevy IROC-Z 350 TPI --- rebuilt EVERYTHING compcam .500-.510 // 276-266 114* lobe AT with B&M shift kit JetChip ~~ my shit smokes corvettes all day long!

yea that is pretty good also (I have a link to the speedguide TCP Optimizer on the main page) ~~~ for a while though the DSLReports one did not work for people on satellite so i never linked to it... I have been thinking about developing a tool like that myself for TestMy.net. - Damon

Have you tried the TCP Optimizer on the front page of this site ~~~ that might help you... And by the way... a very large amount of cable techs are friggen tards so don't bother calling them licensed (though there are some really good ones) ~~~ I used to be one myself about 3 years ago... at the time I was 18-19, and I was the one that everyone called for help... 30-50 year old dudes that needed a 19 year old dude to teach them half the stuff these guys called me one was simple ~~~ but anyway, like I said there are a few good cable guys out there ~~~ If the optimizer doesn't work, let me know your computers specs... and if you are going though USB or ethernet ~~ (you might want to try switching to the oposite to see if either your USB or ethernet adaptor is at fault.. ethernet would be the more likely of the two to have a problem 'going out') The optimizer is a good thing to try first because if you have ever downloaded or tried any "MAKE YOUR SHIT FASTER!" type stuff... speedguide's prog will fix that ~~ here is a little post I wrote on it http://www.testmy.net/forumz/viewtopic.php?p=379&highlight=tcp+optimizer#379 Although it is extreamly difficult to solve a problem like yours online, I always like to try.

thank you

see that's why you always partition your hard drive to have like 20% system side... and leave the rest of the space for your files... How big is your Harddrive ... ~ you don't have to loose everything by the way... go buy a harddrive .. transfer everything over to that... format the old one (partition it right this time, so that if you need to format in the future... it's easy and you won't lose anything)....... THEN, format the new harddrive after all your persoanl files are off and you are satisfied, and return it to the store... ~~ kinda messed up way to do things, but it works and the store won't think anything of it... just say the hard drive was acting up and you want your $ back

corsiar (think that's how you spell that ) ~~ and trust me it will help

People must really dig the new site design... (by the way... this post is more for me than it is for public... kind of a diary of events) Twice as many people have bookmarked the site since redesign 20% of people bookmarking Twice as many page views trending this month at 2.2 million page views 30% increase in visitors this month 30% increase in visits per visitor (2.2visits/visitor very nice) Visits duration :: Average: 7 minutes up from Average: 6.22 minutes (people are kickin' it here longer) and about 500% increase over last month in referers from forums (people are talking 'bout TMN) can't wait to see the traffic boom when i unveil my new addition to testmy!! I get all this friggen traffic... YET, I only have 500 posts to my forum that has been up a year! That is friggen pathetic! But Forums are extreamly hard to start! But once that snow ball gets big enough and starts growing too fast... ima need to get more mods

HAHAHHAHA, Emachines ... Sorry but the XP 2000+ will blow the celeron out of the water. Don't get an Nvidia 5700 ~~ get a Radeon 9800 or a 9800 pro, I have personally benchmarked the 9800 & 9800Pro, 5700 and 5900 ~~~ nothing can touch ATI's higher end cards... NOTHING! Here are a couple of posts i have written... http://www.testmy.net/forumz/viewtopic.php?p=103&highlight=9800#103 http://www.testmy.net/forumz/viewtopic.php?p=435&highlight=9800#435 I run an AMD 2100+ ... and swear by AMD and ATI both, My 2100+ is old news right now (got it a very long time ago) but still I have yet to see any of my friends and co-workers touch my performance, some of them have 2.5-3GHz P4 machines (and my chip is only running at about 1.7GHz, I have 1Gb of ram, Asus board and Radeon 9800 Pro) ~ Stick with AMD and ATI they will never let you down. If you do get a lower end card though (in the $100-$130 range) I would get a NVidia card, they do have that market pretty locked down. By the way... get yo azz some DDR memory BRA! ~~~ You can't even image the difference! And stop mixing and matching memory chips, you need to have 128/256/512/1024 ~~ keep it uniform and your system will benifit ... take out the mis-matching 64MB chip you have in there and run with 256MB, you will see a difference even though you will have less memory, the computer will be able to write to the RAM easier. (I would persoanlly just make key chains out of all that old memory and get ONE nice 512MB - that will dramatically boost you ~~ even more if your board can take DDR and you get yourself a 512 DDR)

Yea... sometimes a good 'ol format and re-install will clear up any problems ~~~ but this is coming from someone that formats like every two months (I love a clean computer)

When was the last time you formatted ... windows XP?

That would be the best one ... you may have a problem with your NIC card ~~ what are your system specs

Yea ~~~ that is almost 1mbps slower than you should be though

ouch... yea that is pretty bad for cable. Have you triend the Optimizer on the main page?? https://www.speedguide.net/files/TCPOptimizer.exe What is the speed quote from your provider? (comcast colorado right)

Do you mean kbps or KB/s ~~ Please post the cut and paste from the bottom of the results page ~~ will help us to better assist you. ~~~ me for instance ::: Download Stats ::: Connection is: 3581 kbps about 4 Mbps (tested with 1496 KB) Download Speed is: 437 Kb/sec Auth Code: 2053716 (validate a http://www.testmy.net) Bottom Line: 64 times faster than 56K you can download 1MB in 2 second(s) Validation Link :: https://testmy.net/cgi-bin/auth_check_dn.cgi?num=2053716&kbps=3581&gen=gen ~~ like so ^^^^^^^^^

Tests are ran off my dedicated server in Texas ~~~ why do you ask?

1013 isn't my largest test.. if you have a conection that sits right about 4mbps you will get the 1496 test ~~~ this will happen no matter what test you choose to start with. ::: Download Stats ::: Connection is: 3883 kbps about 4 Mbps (tested with 1496 KB) Download Speed is: 474 Kb/sec Auth Code: 2058246 (validate a http://www.testmy.net) Bottom Line: 69 times faster than 56K you can download 1MB in 2 second(s) Validation Link :: https://testmy.net/cgi-bin/auth_check_dn.cgi?num=2058246&kbps=3883&gen=gen

My max is 3 Mbps and this is what i get... ::: Download Stats ::: Connection is: 3807 kbps about 4 Mbps (tested with 1496 KB) Download Speed is: 465 Kb/sec Auth Code: 2057106 (validate a http://www.testmy.net) Bottom Line: 68 times faster than 56K you can download 1MB in 2 second(s) Validation Link :: https://testmy.net/cgi-bin/auth_check_dn.cgi?num=2057106&kbps=3807&gen=gen haha, Cox Communications RULES!

Thank you ~~~~ very nice score by the way.

sheeeeeeit ~~ I got all my computers set to 100 Mbps // full duplex ~

well, though I am not 100% told about any of this, my guess would be that this is a "customer service" move... I myself am getting over 4 mbps and am only supposed to get 3mbps (my upload has stayed at 256 though and has not been effected) ~~ This is all since that post I made... cox has done some upgrades and has a little extra bandwidth, I'm not one to complain about that ~~ but I sure as hell am going to enjoy it while I have it

hehe, same here
